Change, Loss and Regulating Your Emotions Amid Family Chaos

EP:160 Hey Thrive Community! It’s Brooke here, and in this episode of the Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I’m giving you a real, raw update on all the things happening in my world. From juggling the chaos of family schedules—think travel baseball, umpiring, and softball—to stepping back into my business and finally deciding it’s time to write that book I’ve been talking about for years, I’m sharing it all. I open up about how the recent eclipse and life’s curveballs have pushed me to trust my instincts, speak my truth, and embrace change—even when it’s uncomfortable.

Big Kids, Bigger Feelings: Empowering Emotional Growth with Alyssa Campbell

EP:158 Hey friends, it’s Brooke! In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Alyssa, the brilliant mind behind “Big Kids, Bigger Feelings” and “Tiny Humans, Big Emotions.” We dove deep into what truly sets her work apart—understanding the unique nervous system of every child (and adult!). Alyssa shared her journey from teaching preschool to pioneering the Collaborative Emotion Processing Method, and we explored why emotional intelligence isn’t just about kids—it’s about us, too. We talked about practical ways to support kids in schools and at home, from sensory breaks to setting real boundaries, and why it’s so important to use data and outcomes—not just anecdotes—to measure the impact of emotional development programs. Alyssa’s insights on empowering parents, teachers, and kids to understand their own brains and bodies are game-changers. If you’re ready to move beyond the buzzwords and really make a difference in your child’s (and your own!) emotional well-being, this episode is for you.

Back-to-School Transitions: Sensory & Emotional Survival Guide

EP:155 Hey y’all, it’s Dr. B! In this episode, I’m getting real about the rollercoaster of emotions and sensory overload that comes with the back-to-school transition—for both our kids and ourselves.

We dive into why our brains crave routine, how to spot sensory struggles in your kids, and practical ways to create a sensory safe zone at home and advocate for one at school. I also talk about prepping for smoother mornings, building in calming rituals, and the power of repair and self-compassion when things don’t go as planned.

Internal Vs. External Regulation

EP:147 Hey there! In this episode, I'm diving deep into something that changed my life completely - the difference between external and internal regulation. Let me tell you, for years I was that person constantly seeking validation from everyone around me, putting myself last, and feeling frustrated when no one could read my mind. I'm sharing my personal journey of how I transformed from constantly seeking external permission to becoming my own biggest supporter. We'll explore how external regulation looks like constantly waiting for your partner to notice you're exhausted, or feeling angry when your kids don't magically understand your needs. Sound familiar? The game-changer? Learning to check in with MYSELF. What do I feel? What do I need? And most importantly, recognizing that I'm worthy of taking care of myself - not because someone else says so, but because I say so. I'll walk you through practical steps to start your internal regulation journey, share vulnerable stories from my own life, and help you understand that you have everything you need to support your own nervous system. Start your internal regulation journey today! Pause right now and ask yourself: "How am I feeling? What do I need?" #ThrivelikeaParent #InternalRegulation #SelfCare #MentalHealthJourney #parentingtips  Can't wait to hear how this resonates with you!
